What about OZ Ultraleggera 17x8.0 +40??
I apologize if someone has already discussed this before, but i can't seem to find any information at all on the +40mm offset version of these wheels. I'm going to be buying a set a new wheels very soon to replace my stock wheels (it's a good time for me since i have to replace my haggard Hankook Ventus v12s anyway) and fell in love with the Ultraleggeras .
I came across these on Tirerack but i haven't been able to find any other discussion here on these. Does anyone have any info or thoughts on them/anyone using this offset at all? Any confirmed pics? Why i should get them or the +35? I've been going back and forth in my head between either these or the +35's. I'm primarilly focused on an OEM+ setup right now that's very flush or a tad under and hate not having good comparison pics between the two. I'm also currently on stock camber/suspension but will be swapping out to STI pink springs in a few weeks. Tirerack link for +40 is below (ignore the 325i/jetta in the links, it's a Tirerack "feature" ). I'd greatly appreciate anything you guys have! +40 https://www.tirerack.com/wheels/Whee...t+Silver+Paint +35 https://www.tirerack.com/wheels/Whee...t+Silver+Paint

I think I can help a little on this, I just put on a set of OZ Ultraleggera's on my brz, the specs are 17x8 +48 with a 245/45/17 tire. the only issue I have run into is slight rubbing on the front sway bar when i turn the last 5% of full lock. As for the look mine are sunken in a bit and not so much "flush" but its the same offset as oem wheels so it looks similar. I would think if you were to get the 17x8 +40 it would be a good fit.

http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=65113 Apparently they have stopped making these wheels in 17x8 +35. But to answer you question the 17x8 +40 will fit but a +35 would be more flush. EDIT: Ah yes, i missed the bolt pattern. OP you need 5x100 bolt pattern wheels Last edited by Vital; 04-05-2017 at 01:11 PM. |
